<div>Dare I ask whether Halcyon can do offset lines (so we can start to do one-way, bike lanes & bus lanes with different casings)?</div>

wonderful-looking maps with just a few lines of text. The tagging and<br>rendering together make Potlatch 2 ideal for ‘vertical’ mapping<br>applications, such as a cycle-specific editor or a building/addressing<br>editor. Stylesheets aren’t just about making the map look pretty: you<br>
can create stylesheets to help your mapping, such as one that highlights<br>roads without names.<br><br>The rendering engine (Halcyon) is available as a compact (<100k)<br>standalone component which you can embed in webpages, so your custom<br>
maps can be used outside Potlatch 2.<br><br></blockquote></div>
<div><br>Wow, that's all kinds of cool. Just had a play...really nifty. Looking forward to coming up with my own version of CycleMap that won't bore holes in my eyes :)<br><br>Also, I'm impressed that you've redone Potlatch. I actually thought Potlatch 1 was pretty good, and far superior to the GoogleMaps editor...which I thought was pretty good...<br>
